Sorry Neil...I actually thought we were gonna be close at the end there.
I gotta hear about that capitalization of Fire. I'm wondering if you were thinking 'grease fire', grease -> Greece, capitalized to hit Greece? If so just want to point out that I don't believe it's a legal clue to try and hit unrelated words that are pronounced the same as a third word not on the board. Nich, correct me if I'm wrong. Or maybe Greece was part of Emperor and we just got jumbled?
Either way, that's a tough boar
Greek Fire.
I wanted Fire Box, Well Fire, and Greece (Greek Fire) plus the two on your list, and just hope to get lucky somehow.
And yeah I was just trying to shoot the moon. We gave it a shot. I loved classic In Living Color and I'm disappointed I didn't catch that.
Yeah, you did what you had to do. 100% not on you. I'd be disappointed if you didn't go all out on the second clue
Bar - 7
Oh that's a lot
Australia
Bed
Box
Card
Chocolate - Yes
Club - Yes
Contract - Maybe, though it's week - lawyers are part of the bar, and work on contracts a lot
Copper - Maybe
Dance - Yes
Diamond
Drill
Genius - Yes, Apple stores
Hook - Maybe, you could hook something to a bar
Hotel - Yes
Loch ness
Mercury
Mole
Oil - Is an oil bar a thing? Fancy Italian restaurants or something?
Phoenix - I assume Phoenix has bars, but meh
Platypus
Point
Press - Maybe? Weightlifting connection?
Pupil
Space
Washington - Like Phoenix
Chocolate
Club
Dance
Hotel
Genius are the obvious ones.
After that, I'd go
Press
Then, in some order,
Contract
Hook
Chocolate - chocolate sold in bars
Club - clubs have bars unless it's an under 21 club, which are rare
Contract - Lawyers have to pass the bar; stretchier
Copper - copper bars, sure
Dance - dance on the bar; ballet dancers hold the bar on the wall; backup
Genius - The reason this is capitalized is for Apple's Genius Bar
Hook - off of a pole, not a bar, but may be close enough; also there are hooks like meat hooks that are on bars I guess; backup to backup
Hotel - often have bars where people meet and slip their room key to someone
Press - bench press and other exercises using a bar with weights on it
Pupil - Law Students take the bar; stretchier
definite guesses:
chocolate
club
copper
genius
hotel
press
then need 1 more:
dance seems best
then pass
then some backups:
contract
hook
pupil
that was all alphabetical but seems to align pretty well with yours other than copper you have lower; it isn't one of my fave so we can move it down
first stab at an order for guessing, feel free to move some around:
Genius
Chocolate
Club
Hotel
Dance
Press
Copper
pass
Contract
Hook
Pupil
Dance as in dance bar as in a club. I think that's a definite.
I'm less convinced on copper - if it was gold, then sure, but do people really think of copper in bar form?
I'm with you on the top 6 and don't think order matters much there. Between copper and contract for 7, I'm not feeling great about either one, because both are easily missable
If you're feeling good about copper over contract, we can go with that
Genius
Chocolate

lobby - 6
Three sure ones to me:
Hotel - hotel lobby, part of the hotel
Oil - oil lobby, industry-paid people talking to politicians
Washington - Where those politicians are being lobbied
Less sure:
Press - Press lobby is a thing
Contract - Something you lobby to get
Guesses
Space - Aerospace is a big industry to get contracts to lobby for in Washington
Point - Something made by a lobbyist
I'm pretty much in full agreement. I think space is pretty strong and would certainly put it in the "less sure" category. I don't get point at all, and would have some of the other materials like copper and diamond above it. But I think I'm on board with your first 6.
I think my order is this, but could be convinced to move things around.
